A policy-controlled access system comprising a client device running a local application, A mid-link server monitors network traffic from the client device. The network traffic includes third-party content accessed by a user on the client device. A request for data from the end-user is received using the local application, a category associated with the request for the data is determined, and a plurality of policies associated with access to the data is determined based on the category. A machine-learning based Uniform Resource Locator (URL) score associated with the data is determined based on URLs extracted from user activities. A machine learning based policy engine preference is generated based on priority levels of the plurality of policies. The access to the data is provided based on the machine-learning based URL score in accordance with the machine learning based policy engine preference.
